📦 Getting Started: The Smart Way to Unbox

Your First 5 Minutes Matter

When you first open that sleek Samsung box, here's what most people miss:

1. Remove the pull tab from the top and bottom of the packaging

2. Lift the top box to reveal your Galaxy Flip

3. Look for the hidden accessories in the bottom compartment

4. Remove screen protectors from both front and back displays

🔍 Quick Tip: Don't throw away that small packaging insert! Your warranty info, quick start guide, and terms are tucked inside there.

⚠️ Important Note: The USB-C cable is included, but you'll need your own charging brick. Samsung no longer includes wall adapters with their phones.

🔧 Essential Setup: Beyond the Basics

Power On and Initial Configuration

1. Press and hold the power button (located on the right side below volume buttons)

2. Select your language and press "Start"

3. Accept terms and conditions (review Samsung's privacy policy)

4. Choose your setup method: Transfer from old device or manual setup

▶️ Try This Now: If you have an iPhone or Android device, use the "Easy Setup" option to transfer your apps, photos, and contacts automatically.

Network Connection Made Simple

Wi-Fi Setup:

1. Select your network from the list

2. Enter your password

3. Wait for connection confirmation

Mobile Network Options:

• Transfer SIM from another phone

• Scan QR code from your carrier

• Search for new mobile plans

• Set up later in settings

🔍 Quick Tip: If you're switching carriers, many now offer eSIM setup through QR codes – it's faster than physical SIM cards!

🔒 Security Setup: Your Digital Fortress

Multi-Layer Protection

PIN/Password Setup:

1. Choose a 6-digit PIN (avoid obvious numbers like 123456)

2. Confirm your PIN

3. Remember: You'll need this after restarts

Fingerprint Registration:

1. Tap "Continue" on fingerprint setup

2. Place finger on the side button sensor (not the screen!)

3. Move your finger around without lifting it

4. Complete the pattern shown in the animation

⚠️ Warning: Remove phone cases before registering fingerprints for best results.

Face Recognition Setup:

1. Position phone 8-12 inches from your face

2. Look directly at camera for initial scan

3. Tilt head up slightly when prompted
